    This meta seems super cool but my brain is being so slow with it. So the moves are swapped and get affected by the mons swapped stat plus boost, so blizzard is off of chienpaos attack stat, so if it got intimated it would make it weaker, but when annihilate had all those attack boosts from defiant wouldn’t that have made shadow ball stronger bc it’s now a physical move?
